    meñDak ko aage jaanā thā vo to bhāgā car par

    taar pe billī naach rahī thī kachhve se ye bolī

    aao bādal meñ chhup jaa.eñ kheleñ āñkh-micholī

    machhlī beTī uuñgh rahī thī vo bhī pīchhe ho

    jab dariyā meñ aag lagī

    bādal meñ thā paanī kam-kam lekin dhuup thī zyāda

    dhuup ke bistar par leTā thā bārish shahzāda

    sab meñ ole baañT rahā thā shahzāde daadā

    jab dariyā meñ aag lagī

    machhlī ne āvāz lagā.ī mujh ko bhī do ole

    billī aur kachhve ko dekhā phir daadā bole

    bādal ke jo darvāze the kar kis ne khole

    jab dariyā meñ aag lagī

    daadā ye baat sunī to billī dauḌī aa.ī

    billī ko ik dhakkā maarā kachhve se Takrā.ī
